The Canon 6D Mk II is a camera that
And I don't believe I'm saying this
May in fact be best for the person who shoots in Auto Mode. As I stated earlier on
The Canon 6D Mk II is a camera that seems like
Bulky design with heavy kit lens
Limited dynamic range
Updated 26MP sensor with good high ISO performance
Pleasing JPEG color
Generally good ergonomics and controls
Effective Dual Pixel autofocus
Polished touchscreen operation with fully articulated touchscreen
Back in 2012, the EOD 6D was a popular camera that met the requirements of most advanced amateurs and serious enthusiasts. There's every reason to believe its successor will be equally popular, with the improved AF system, faster burst shooting with a lar...

Vari-angle Touch LCD screen, 45-point AF system - up from 11-point AF system, Excellent image performance - better than the original 6D, Light weight at 650gm, Better sealing for all weather conditions
No 4K video except in time lapse mode, No built-in flash, No slot for a second memory card
Arguably, still the best DSLR at its price point in the market, if you can forgive Canon for not adding 4K video except in time lapse mode. Original 6D users should definitely upgrade...
If you're looking for an affordable yet capable full-frame DSLR, the Canon EOS 6D Mark II is an excellent choice. It's not revolutionary, but ticks the boxes for what is required by the majority of enthusiasts. It handles nicely, offers a solid and well-r...
Articulating touchscreen, Dual Pixel Autofocus in live view, Fast, 45-point viewfinder autofocus, Good high ISO performance, 6.5 fps continuous shooting
No 4K video, No advanced video settings, Limited base ISO dynamic range, 2 fps bursts with continuous AF in live view
It's clear that BMW took the feedback from the F10 M5 to heart, as the new M5 addresses just about every issue we had with it. It's a good thing, too, because rivals like the E63 S from Mercedes-AMG are packing more luxury and performance capability than...
The 6D MkII feels completely refreshed, with a newly-designed 26.2MP sensor, ISO 40,000 (Canon's highest native ISO), and the vari-angle touchscreen all bringing it bang up to date for stills photographers wanting to bridge the gap between enthusiast and...
Produces detailed, nicely saturated images, Weatherproof and dustproof, Articulating touchscreen, Very well built
No 4K video, Only has a single card slot, Viewfinder only has 98% coverage
With the 6D Mark II, Canon has produced a decent all-rounder, but it's missing too many things to truly excite in what is now a crowded market. In 2012, it was quite something to have a full-frame camera in a small and light body, at a ‘cheap' price. Fas...
Introduces vari-angle touchscreen for the first time on a full-frame EOS model, Superior focusing speed in Live View mode thanks to Dual Pixel AF, Offers 5-axis movie image stabilisation, Excellent battery life
Lacks 4K video and headphone port for audio monitoring, Upgraders can't use existing battery grip, AF points all grouped together centrally in the frame, Difficult to use exposure compensation with Auto ISO in manual mode
Only 98% viewfinder coverage, Absence of 4K a disappointment, Limited AF coverage, Poor dynamic range, No USB 3.0
With the EOS 6D Mark II Canon has certainly made some significant improvements over the outgoing EOS 6D, packing in a host of new features including a fresh sensor, a faster processor, a much more credible AF system and a stronger burst rate. It's a much...

Canon EOS 6D Mark II – Performance Canon DSLR's are known for being reliable performers. After shooting with the camera for a week in the Scottish Highlands, the EOS 6D Mark II certainly lived up to my expectations. Compared to some battery-thirsty mirror...
